Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
Antonio Gibson Overview
"Big athlete with position versatility" will be a tag from some, but it's vague and lacks projection. While Gibson is a one-year wonder, his 14 career touchdowns on just 77 touches demand attention. He played more slot than running back in college, but he was a runner in high school and has an intriguing combination of size, burst, vision and power. He is a four-phase player on Day 1 with the ability to return kicks, cover them and create matchup problems for linebackers out of the backfield. The sample size is extremely limited and he needs a developmental runway, but Gibson has exciting upside as a pro. Strengths Makes explosive plays in running, receiving and return game Offers additional matchup possibilities for coordinators Runs much faster than it looks High school sprinter with breakaway potential Had seven total touchdowns of 40-plus yards Quick gather and cut on stretch plays Big runner who absorbs and dismisses angle tackles Decisive runner and gets to a quality burst Sees space well with ball in his hands Sells route stems to tilt coverage off-balance Weaknesses Only one season of production Has 34 career rush attempts Hip tightness limits fluidity in the open field Needs more discipline to keep runs on track when it's there Still learning patience and to set up blocks Only saw offset stretch runs and jet sweeps as a back Rolls and drifts in his route breaks Takes too long getting in and out of breaks

Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
He’ll be our Deebo Samuel, 4.39 speed. Might be a good compliment to McLaurin.

Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
Had reps at RB but mainly a WR. Still a F’up by Goodell.

Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
2nd pick in the 3rd round is a bit early to draft pure need oriented.
Plus RR wanted Cooper badly in FA, didn't get him, wants to bulk our receiving corps up. TE and OT is a bit of a worry, but not gonna go crazy on this pick.

Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
At least we didn't pick a QB with our 2nd pick. Lol Philly. They win 1 Super Bowl then just start Shaqtin' a Fool.

Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
They will use Gibson like 49ers use Deebo Samuel, very similar players. Line him as a RB and play WR, I trust Kyle with this pick.

Just have to trust Kyle Smith with his evaluations.

Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
My initial frustration is already gone. This team does need more playmakers, regardless of position. And if they're going BPA on their board, gotta let them do what they want to do.

Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
The Vikings drafted an OT in the 2nd round, chances of trading TW are getting slimmer and slimmer...

Re: NFL Draft Rounds 2-3
Gibson will be a steal like Terry just watch and Trent is not getting moved.
